Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.7 over 21 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

1.1 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 32 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 3 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.29 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 21 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
13 wickets in 21 matches — 0.62 per match at 21.9, economy 5.01, strike rate 26.2.
